1 2018 DEMAND GENERATION BENCHMARK SURVEY REPORT Tapping Multichannel Marketing & Data As Key Engines For Growth SPONSORED BY SURVEY REPORT
2 70% OF B2B MARKETERS SAID THEIR DEMAND GEN BUDGETS WILL GROW THIS YEAR. INTRODUCTION The core goal of driving growth remains unchanged and fundamental to performance marketing executives. For those marketers directly charged with influencing pipeline, expectations are only increasing as revenue projections become more aggressive and KPIs become more laser focused. The good news from the 2018 Demand Generation Benchmark Survey is budgets for acquisition, nurturing and pipeline activities will continue to climb this year, with 70% saying demand gen budgets would increase and 34% saying spending would grow by more than 20%. However, the expectations for supporting revenue growth are climbing at a more aggressive rate, and the goals and metrics companies are using to judge marketing s impact are also rising rapidly. HOW WILL YOUR DEMAND GENERATION BUDGET CHANGE IN 2018? Increase by more than 30% 12% Increase by more than 20% 22% Increase by 1%-10% 36% Unchanged 25% Decrease by 1%-10% Decrease by more than 20% Decrease by more than 30% 1% 3% 2% 2018 DEMAND GENERATION BENCHMARK SURVEY REPORT 2

Specific findings from the Demand Gen Report survey that illustrate the challenging expectations revenue-focused marketers will face in 2018 include: 63% of respondents indicated their companies were projecting revenue growth of more than 20%; 25% of companies are projecting revenue growth of more than 30%; The number of respondents who said their marketing organizations have specific revenue-based quotas increased by 5% year over year, from 23% in 2017 to 28% this year; and Respondents who indicated pipeline influenced as the primary metric they are measured against increased from 27% in 2017 to 30% in To respond to these more aggressive goals, as well as keep pace with changing buyer behavior, the study found marketers will be relying more heavily on crosschannel strategies for acquisition, engagement and conversion. In the following report, we ll breakdown the findings of this year s survey with specific analysis of: Marketing s role in revenue generation; Cross-channel planning for driving demand; and New tools being added to the martech toolbox DEMAND GENERATION BENCHMARK SURVEY REPORT 3
4 63% OF RESPONDENTS SAID THEIR COMPANY'S REVENUE WILL GROW BY MORE THAN 20% IN MARKETING S STARRING ROLE IN REVENUE The expectations around marketing s contribution to revenue continued to climb with this year s survey. When asked what percentage of revenue would be attributed to marketing-sourced leads: 28% said between 26% to 50%; 27% said between 11% to 25%; 18% said less than 10%; 11% said between 50% and 75%; 6% said between 75% and 100%; and Only 9% said they don t track this data. The increased pressure to drive growth and attributable revenue has been a consistent challenge for marketers in recent years, and this year s survey showed there are no signs of that abating. WHAT AMOUNT OF TOTAL REVENUE GROWTH IS YOUR ORGANIZATION PROJECTING FOR 2018? Increase by more than 30% 26% Increase by more than 20% 37% Increase by 1%-10% 33% Unchanged 3% Decrease by 1%-10% 1% 2018 DEMAND GENERATION BENCHMARK SURVEY REPORT 4

In addition to a growing number of marketers indicating they now have revenuebased performance quotas, account-specific quotas are also emerging as a top KPI for marketing teams, with 27% of respondents saying they now set account, lead and revenue-based quotas. The focus on account-based tracking was also evident in looking at the primary metric marketers said they are measured against. While the traditional KPI of MQLs was the top response for 33% of respondents, 30% indicted pipeline influenced was the top metric, 14% said total leads/inquiries, and 11% indicated accounts engaged was the main metric DEMAND GENERATION BENCHMARK SURVEY REPORT 5
6 68% SAID IN-PERSON EVENTS CONTINUE TO RANK AS THE TOP ENGAGEMENT TACTIC. THE CROSS-CHANNEL PLAN FOR DRIVING DEMAND The increased expectation to drive demand is nearly universal among B2B marketers, but the approach to realizing attributable revenue is changing rapidly. According to the survey of 160 marketers, the top demand generation priorities for 2018 are: 1. Focusing on lead quality over quantity; 2. Improving conversion rates/campaign results; 3. Generating increased lead volume; 4. Improving ability to measure/analyze marketing impact; and 5. Improving the depth/accuracy of our database. In terms of top-of-funnel acquisition strategies, in-person events and webinars continued to rank as the top engagement tactics (selected by 68% and 61% of respondents, respectively). While some of the tried-and-true formats such as white papers and case studies (both 50%) continued to rank high as engagement tactics, emerging sources such as videos (37%) and content syndication (25%) also ranked high on the list.

Driving conversions later in the funnel? 50% SAID SEARCH WAS A GO-TO CHANNEL FOR DRIVING LEADS. The survey also showed marketers are continuing to rely on multiple channels to drive leads for their pipeline. While was still the go-to channel for 67% of marketers, search grew by almost 10% from last year (moving from 41% to 50%), and online ads climbed 5% (moving from 16% to 21%). The importance of cross-channel marketing was also validated when marketers were asked which channels were most effective in terms of early-stage engagement, with search increasing 6% YOY to 56%, social climbing 4% YOY to 44%, and online ads moving 6% YOY to 27%. When it came to tactics that helped drive conversions in later stages of the funnel, search actually dipped as a tactic (dropping from 26% last year to 18% this year), while retargeting increased 6% (from 21% last year to 27% this year), direct mail climbed 7% (from 13% to 20% this year) and telemarketing posted a big jump (from 32% to 45% this year) DEMAND GENERATION BENCHMARK SURVEY REPORT 7
8 49% SAID ACCOUNT- BASED TOOLS ARE THEIR TOP PRIORITY. NEW TOOLS FOR THE MARTECH TOOLBOX The survey showed marketers are still actively planning to test and deploy new tools in 2018, with ABM at the top of the list as it was last year. Nearly half of respondents (49%) picked account-based tools as a top priority, but that dropped a bit from last year when 58% had plans to deploy ABM applications. Multichannel lead nurturing (41%), content planning/syndication, retargeting (both 37%), marketing automation (33%) and predictive lead scoring (29%) were among the top tools marketers expect to test or deploy. Measurement and attribution tools are also growing priorities for marketers, with 34% citing content measurement as a priority, 30% selecting attribution modeling, and 28% selecting data enrichment as tools of choice.

Nearly one-third (31%) admitted their database has many contacts that are incomplete or inaccurate, 38% said they are actively reviewing their database, and 18% categorize their database as inadequate to cover target markets DEMAND GENERATION BENCHMARK SURVEY REPORT 9
